    DH is working till probably 1 or so in the morning, harvesting soybeans.  AND my neighbor is at her kid's football game so I am stuck here with the kiddos.  On the up side,I made a pork roast in the crock pot so when I got home all I had to do ws whip up some rice-a-roni and a salad to go with it!  Now a glass of wine, some Looney Tunes, and SM are all I got.  DH told me on Monday he was taking me out tonight for my birthday (it was in ULY) and never said ONCe that the plans were cancelled.  Better for him we arent alone tonight anyway, he's been an insensitive prick to me.  Happy Fing Friday harhar!

    @sparkles2307 - Thats funny we are in N MN too. Wouldnt it be hilarious if we knew each other? We live near Oslo. Been there with both kids in the combine. But ours are older and cant even bear to be seen in public with us!
    @sunnymomma -it will be. There are so many conversations going at one time that it is funny if you were an outsider listening in. You'd think we were all nuts! Which most of us are.

    I am about to put the kiddos in bed & then my mom, my aunt & I are going to watch What To Expect When You're Expecting. And then I'm popping a pain pill & heading to bed. Hopefully I can keep from waking up 50 times during the night. And that the kids won't kick me out of my own bed.

    I just got handed 10... I'm trying to figure out if I should keep it (the smart thing) or spend it on a thing of vodka or rum. its been a ROUGH week. liquor store is close but man I'm tired and it sounds and feels far away... I think I'll go tomorrow and get it...

    dinner is being made by the room mate... chicken enchiladas. and I'd nap but then I'll be up at like 2am wide awake wondering where the holy fuck all the SM's are at 2am ;)
    Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. What do we do? We swim, swim.

    I am printing out coupons, pissed at myself for printing the dog food coupon over another one and I cannot reprint it.  Further pissed because DH ripped it in half, even though the store may have still taken it.  FML.

    Drugged and vicksed the kids, filled and plugged in vaporizers, doubled dosed my vitamin C, ran a couple booked back to the library, I have to remake the bed due to ds's sanitary indiscretion this morning, then I'm climbing in to go to sleep. Dh is watching some stupid wrestling/martial arts thing. Ugh.
    I think the sad part is that this doesn't even surprise me.

    Just finished a lame attempt at a stroller/baby blanket. Am attempting a baby tutu next....then shower and bed. DH got home from Hawaii today, so I'm looking forward to a few minutes cuddling, if he's not already asleep.

    Got my step sister's baby shower up in Jersey tomorrow. Gotta leave by 10 AM to make sure I'm there by 1PM.
    I'm as sexy as a burp mid-kiss. Watch out!
